Cloture will Not Re Enforced.

LONDON, May 10.-An informal meeting of
 the Cabinet was held today to discuss plans
 for expediting the passage of the coercion
 bill. It was decided to abandon the attempt
 to effect a wholesale application of the olo-
 ture rule at fixed date. The refusal of the
 chairman of the committee to put cloture
 until each clause has been fully discussed
 has compelled the ministers to adopt the
 plan of asking for cloture after bona fde
 amendments have been heard. The ministe-
 rialists now calculate that the discussion on
 the coercion bill will last three weeks longer.
 A committee of leading Conservatives has
 made unofficial overtures to MT. Gladstone
 and MT. Morley to find out whether those gentlemen will assent to the appointment of a commission of two English judges and one Scotch judge to inquire into the charges against the Parnellites. The Gladstonians
 are opposed to troubling themselves further with the question unless the government takes definite action, while the government is not disposed to make a move until the CO., ercion bill shall have passed.
 The Unionist members of the Eighty club have been summoned to attend meeting for the purpose of declaring the position of the club on the home rule question. The Glad ston1ans being in a majority will outvote | their opponents and compel the withdrawal | of the Unionists from the club.
 The Queen has commanded that private performance be given by the Wild West

THEIR FLESH ROASTED.

A Terrible Accident in a Steel Mill.
 PITTsBURG, May 10.-A terrible accident at the Edgar Thompson Steel Works at Brad docks about 10 o'clock o-night will probably cost five lives. Furnace E was blown out a few days ago and to-day a gang of men were put to work cleaning it out. An arch had formed composed of coke, limestone and other materials which was still at red heat and part of the men were working under it. Shortly after 10 o'clock tonight without warning the arch gave way. The red matter was thrown in sll directions, knocking men down, in some cases almost burying them. Few of the men in the vicinity escaped. In a shoet time the debris was removed and five men were taken out in horrible condition, their clothing burned entirely from their bodies and the flesh literally cooked. The names of the victims are John Zawloskey, John Geareift, John Gedard, John Smith and Charles Iedonofki,

When the coercion bill was passed the landlords would find that the plan of campaign would con- tinue without the slightest interruption or inconvenience. His proposed policy wonld involve neither crime nor violent resistance of the law, but was a system of combination so perfect, and the people would be induced to act so loyally towards each other, that they would not revert to crime and outrage

THE TORIES HAVE THE VOTES
And so MT. Healey's Efforts to Amend
 the Crimes RiII Come to Naught.

And so NIT. Healey's Efforts to Amend
 the Crimes BflI Come to Naught.
 LONDON, May 10.-In the House of Com mons to-day, in committee on the coercion bill, MT Healey moved an amendment that person committed for contempt of court be treated as a frstclass misdemeanant. He argued that witnesses committed for refusing to answer questions ought not to be subject ed to the same punishment criminals. When the last coercion act was in effect he said the mere detention of many persons shortened their lives ten years (cries of "Hear HearI'D Mir. Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland, said that persons committed could avoid punishment by answering ques- tions. There was no difference between cases under the clause and cases of contempt under the ordinary law. John OConnor, Nationalist, said that if the government im- prisoned witnesses as common criminals for refusing to answer questions it would be 8 disgrace to civilization. Why did not they propose to apply the old fashioned imple- ments of torture including the thumbscrew and rack? Sir Charles Russell, Liberal, con- tended that there was a great difference be- tween witnesses examined under the ordinary protection of legal advice in regular court and those who under the clause could be
 compelled to attend private examination and answer whatever questions were put to them (''Hear! Hearr) Mr. Balfour replied that the law under the explo- siyes act gave the same powers.
 MT. Gladstone denied that these were paral-
 Tel cases. Under the crimes clause witnesses could be summoned to state whether some one had induced somebody else to take or refuse to take particular farm or to deal or refuse to deal with particular tradesman. MT. Healey put it to the government whether it would agree that men committed under the clause should not be kept in solitary con fnement more than twenty hours out of the twenty-four. MT. Balfour promised that the government would inquire into the mode in which the law was administered and prevent harsh treatment of persons committed under it's provisions. MT. Healey's amendment l was rejected by vote of 195 to IA.
 MT. Healey then moved to limit the pen alty for contempt in the case of witnesses to seven days imprisonment.
 MT. Healey's amendment limiting the pen alty for contempt was defeated by vote of 139 to Ill. Another motion referring to l witnesses was negatived and the House then adjourned.
